He claims two men in a black SUV pulled up beside him while he was in the middle lane waiting at the red light. Investigators say one of the men then pulled out a paintball gun and fired at the side of his vehicle.

Police say Khan then opened the window in response, and the driver of the SUV allegedly shot another paintball, striking Khan in the right eye. The suspects then fled the scene.

Khan, a father of two daughters, told NBC10 he has been unable to work as a result of the incident. He has undergone several surgeries at Hahnemann University Hospital.
